I couldn't have asked for a better location – just a short walk to the boardwalk and beach, and surrounded by lots of restaurants and shops. The rooms were spotless and managed to stay cool during a scorching 95+ heatwave. The service was top-notch, with a caring and welcoming staff ready to go the extra mile. However, the dining experience, while offering the best meal in Ocean City, could use more variety. Overall, a great value for the money.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were clean and comfortable, but they were quite small, feeling like a telephone booth. The service, however, was excellent with very welcoming and accommodating staff. The location was very convenient for my needs, being close to the boardwalk and local attractions. The dining options were superb, especially the individually wrapped items and AMAZING scones. Overall, a place with ups and downs worth considering for your stay.

I had a memorable stay at the hotel, with its unique charm and modern, chic rooms. The friendly and accommodating service made me feel right at home. The convenient location just steps away from the beach added to my delightful experience. The dining was a true highlight, offering the best meal of my trip. However, the room size was a bit smaller, reminiscent of a telephone booth, and the facilities were satisfactory but nothing extraordinary.

The hotel is in an unbeatable location right off the boardwalk near the beach, shops, boardwalk, and numerous restaurants. The rooms, although needing some decorating, were exceptionally quiet and impeccably clean, especially the bathrooms. The service, despite planning renovations, was truly terrific with very kind and helpful staff. The dining experience in the morning was delightful with relaxing music playing in the main entrance area and provided individually wrapped items like bagels, cereal, yogurt, fruit, and AMAZING scones.
